The big question is, should I separate them out? Documentaries, and films. I thought it might be interesting to list EVERY documentary that Allen’s talking head appears. It’s weird and who would ever need such a list….but who needs this entire site.

But thanks for tips. I will get to them soon. Please keep them coming. Feedback is invaluable, we don’t get enough

I think “every” documentary is not relevant. Woody has participated to many many ones really not related to his own work. Those ones are mandatory (hence those 3: Woody Before Allen, Woody Allen: A Life in Film and Meetin’ WA). They definitely belong to Woody’s filmography, just like Wild Man Blues or Woody Allen: A Documentary (in the same way of thinking, in the page “books” of this site, I’ve suggested to add the conversation books & the compic strips, not totally by Woody but in my opinion they also fully belong to his oeuvre).

The key question is: concerning other documentaries where Woody just appears, there are some where his interventions are numerous and very very clever, giving, at the end of the day, more understanding on Woody than the doc theme. An example: in 2003, Richard Schickel made a great doc about Charlie Chaplin (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0379730/combined). Woody gives some very personal opinions (e.g. he does not appreciate that much The Dictator). To me this documentary should be listed here as well.

Concretely: based on the imdb list where Woody is listed in the “himself” category, you should remove the tv shows and on the real pure documentaries, select those of interest for Woody’s understanding.

And please don’t be shy: who needs your site? Everyone on Earth. Not only me. Not only it is a graphically wonderful site, but it is full of information, well designed etc. You can’t imagine how happy I was the first time I’ve discovered it. I really mean it: among many sites about WA, yours is, from far, the best one.

I think something can be done with those docos. It just needs to be laid out properly, and put in a hidden away page. I jus think it is interesting, a list that would be – Bob Hope, Charlie Chaplin, Stanley Kubrick, Casting Directors, Atheism…. but yes, it will be fun/interesting to make sense of it. (Thanks for the niceness)

Does anyone know the name of a short Woody Allen film about a young man meeting the girl’s father on a first date? We see the whole thing from the young man’s eyes, and his thoughts are written on the screen in a sub-title mode. We think that this was done around the time of “What’s Up Tiger Lily.”
